The RNLI had a record fundraising year, despite attacks from Nigel Farage & right wing media for attempting to save asylum seekers trying to cross English Channel. Shows British public is much more humane than right wing newspapers https://t.co/IMSN6Qi6N0

This is a hazardous topic to discuss, as you immediately get accused of all sorts of things, but here goes.
I think the boundaries of free speech in this country are in the wrong place.

Not a question of being scared. I'm not frightened...I'm horrified. Since June 2021: 200,000 unvaccinated Americans lost their lives due to COVID despite widespread availability of vaccines. 200,000 Americans needlessly died because they believed disinformation from the far right

[George Monbiot @GeorgeMonbiot]

The film got it dead right. The Great Wall of Denial erected by the media. Money and political games taking precedence over the survival of life on Earth, the endless trivial nonsense on our screens that sucks our brains out through our eyes.

Half the grey squirrel population will be painted red in order to increase the red squirrel population. Gloss paint will be used as everyone knows that an animal with a shiny coat is a healthy animal.

It is said that the cunning folk can hold the feather of a crow and talk to that bird. It is said the witch can hold a feather of a magpie and talk to a whole tiding of them. - Vera Winterfield, 1970 #WitchWednesday

Anti-vaxxers in Milton Keynes enter a test and trace centre.

Criminal damage, aggressive protestors one of which steals testing equipment and dumps in a bin outside the centre.

Disgraceful is not the word for it.

It's rare to see a holly this old and large. Such a special tree, both for wildlife and in human culture.

Many people don't realise the leaves are only prickly lower down, where browsers like deer can reach them. Further up they're spineless.

There's always a reason in nature.

I'm working on a more detailed map to show where Britain's rainforest fragments survive & could be restored - more to be revealed in 2022.

Huge thanks to everyone who's sent me photos of potential rainforest sites - you can see many of them here: https://t.co/UbcTKrVrHF 3/n

[Hookland @HooklandGuide]

There are places - Black Point is one of them - where the past is an unquiet frontier. Places where the now is infected by temporal phantoms. Where the howling static of then overwhelms linearity. It's not a case of where the dynamite shack is, but when it is. – #MattAdams

Myth debunking:
After reading more misleading takes in the media, I'm going to try to explain this again- overall, omicron causes *more* and not less severe disease than delta - even at an individual level for most people. Why? 🧵
